Here in the USA, “far-right” is associated with bigotry, white supremacy and Racism because if you don’t want your children groomed by sex workers, you’re “far-right”. The Moms for Liberty have been called white supremacists and racisists. I am a member of a local Moms for Liberty group so I guess I’m on the List. I consider myself a conservative or a voluntaryist, because I do not like government overreach. Another “far-right” List. 🤣 I think I should have the right to choose medical procedures for myself and my underage children. Oooops, another “far-right” label. From watching UK Column, I gather you guys are having the same thing happening there.

You a UK Columner? Oh well, join the club. Extremely extreme far right!

I just heard BBC radio 4 Today while in the shower. They were discussing Trump at the RNC rally last night and how extreme the Trump movement is compared to the moderate wing of the Republican party. This is supposed to be our top notch professional flagship national broadcaster news programme. They sweepingly categorise normal folk as extremists.

That was followed by Desert island Discs when a 'celebrity' picks 8 tracks of music. She was introduced as the first 'black' woman to do something at the Proms. They are obsessed with gender & identity politics. It's so boring and sadly, it's been damaging and divisive.

I trust it will backfire on them. False ideology is fated to fail.

Thanks for the comment.

It seems that more and more people and categories of people are being thrown into this far right label ... basically anybody that does not agree with the "party" line ON ANYTHING.

Democracy is a vote for the most popular.

The most popular is now too popular; popularist.

Popularist is far right.

Democracy is far right.... it's all gotten a bit silly.
